Bathroom planning 14m², new build, square, two windows

You only have to reach the window when you clean it.

Hm, I am more concerned about ventilation: With bathtub + pre-wall installation + windowsill, there is quite a bit of depth, so you might really have to lean over the tub a bit more to reach the window handles? I had hoped that with a freestanding tub/tub shape, it would be easier to get past it sideways and reach the window.

The problem that could occur in vacation rentals etc. is a) a floor space that is too small, so that the underfloor heating is not sufficient or, without underfloor heating, that there simply is none installed in the shower and therefore no heat from the heating reaches the shower. However, your room will be sufficiently warm. Good construction includes underfloor heating loops even in the walk-in.

It is terribly hard to clean around freestanding bathtubs. You have to really want to do that. And I don’t like walk-in showers either, because I don’t like the draft. And underfloor heating helps little with that. Ours is, for example, off in summer.

I see it the same way as : The draft or the missing water vapor in walk-in showers put us off, and nowadays underfloor heating has such a low supply temperature that the floor hardly gets warm. I also see the cleaning around the tub as a big disadvantage; If you can still reach the windows well with a built-in tub, that would also be an option in this design.

I see it like : The draught or the lack of water vapor in walk-in showers puts us off, and nowadays the underfloor heating has such a low supply temperature that the floor hardly gets warm.

What you haven’t considered in my opinion is that a new building is much better insulated. The underfloor heating is absolutely sufficient for us – even in the bathroom. In addition, a steam column also forms in the walk-in shower.
Anyway, everyone surely has their own ideas on that. However, I don’t know anyone who had a walk-in shower and now would like to have one with a door again, rather the opposite.

You still have a second window in the bathroom that you can use for ventilation. Therefore, you really only need to reach the big one for cleaning.

I see it the same way. Now in the summer, our underfloor heating is off too, but the tiles warm up quickly from the warm water. In any case, I haven’t needed the additional electric heater in the towel radiator yet in the 8 months we’ve been living in the house. I would always leave it open at first, you can always install a door later.

I don't like large bathrooms, most have 5m2 of nothing in the middle, the tub squeezed into one corner, everything else in the other corners, it just always looks so old-fashioned.

Toilet and bidet separated doesn't make sense, does it?

People are so different, I personally love large bathrooms. You could put a big palm in there. Bathtub with 2 steps in front, etc.
